Celery Root Soup with Pumpkin Seeds and Celery Leaves
We certainly weren't the first to coin the name for this year's convergence of Thanksgiving and Hanukkah, a magical overlap that hasn't happened in about a century. But could we resist the culinary and journalistic impulse to capitalize on a new holiday? No, no we could not.

So without further ado, a sample menu to help you gastronomically merge these two joyous occasions:
If we learned anything from watching Seinfeld, it's that Jews love soup. And so do Americans. Here's your first course.

Your relatives will kvell over these insanely delicious biscuits.
You can brine your turkey breast, or you can just buy a kosher turkey and rub it with all these delicious seasonings. Boom. Thanksgivukkah.
